Tim, i also have had bad experiences with MBNA. i took up a 14 month 0% deal last year and also after some doubious late payments due to banking transaction times and i also had my promotional deal removed and am facing 34% interest on a £8000 balance. i am looking to move the balance to another card, but the thing that is worrying me is that as i am engaging with other card firms i am finding that they wont accept balance transfers from MBNA, Tesco being one.
